Our Testing Methods
Standard protocol: 2 indoor + 1 outdoor baseline. Additional samples: $75/ea
Cultured Mold or Fecal Bacteria Analysis
Air Sample Testing
Our analysis captures airborne particulates to weigh indoor quality against outdoor air. This is the gold-standard approach for diagnosing mold that is present and active.
Tape Lift & Swab
Our technicians perform direct surface sampling to analyze visible mold on walls, furniture, or floors. This is the preferred method for identifying the quantity and type of mold when it is clearly visible.
Cultured Samples
This technique involves culturing surface samples in the lab to identify thriving mold species. Mold has complex life cycles, and this method reveals presence that other tests may overlook. This is a multi-day test due to the incubation period.
Bacteria Analysis
Mold isn’t the only problem caused by water. For plumbing leaks or overflows, the lab analyzes samples to determine the presence of bacteria that are found in fecal matter. This is a specialized multi-day procedure to ensure environment safety.
